Today...

... is Dr. Suess's birthday.

And Jon Bon Jovi's birthday.

And Karen Carpenter's birthday.

And my birthday. 34.

Meet Sully. He's our new baby. We adopted him over the weekend from the pound. He's a Bernese Mountain Dog. We kept with our Disney themed names. (We always name our pets after Disney characters.) I kind of wanted to name him Carl. Because in the movie Up, Ellie passed on first and then Carl was left without her. And a dog named Carl is just funny.It would've been my little nod to Ellie that we lost last week. But the kids outvoted me and we decided on Sully. Because he'll be big and fluffy and hairy like the guy in Monster's, Inc. He'll get to be about 110 or 115 lbs. He won't, however, have purple spots.

I kind of wish I had something profound to say. A list of 34 great things to accomplish this year. Wisdom I've learned in the past year. Something. Anything. But instead I'm in a hurry. I'm meeting some friends for lunch. And I haven't showered yet. I can't show up stinky on my birthday.

And spending time with people I care about it a good thing to focus on today.

well happy birthday miss beki!!!!sully is just adorable!!! my friend has the same kind of dog named gracie, she is just as sweet as can be...(she sometimes thinks she is a lap dog though...fair warning! :) i will pray that sully stays were he knows he will be loved and cared for!!! (haha, at first i thought you named him bon jovi, which is weird since i know he wasn't in any disney movies...that i know of anyway...lol!!) have a super duper birthday!!!34...i WISH!

Oh he's adorable! Did they tell you what they think he's mixed with? (having raised Bernie's before, he is clearly not a purebred) Hopefully he has all the Bernie traits. They are AWESOME dogs! Love love love them, just didn't like the hair! LOL

Happy birthday Beki. Hope you had a blessed day! I have a feeling that at least 30 of things you will need to accomplish will have to do with SULLY!!!!!!I am loving my WORDS TO LIVE By necklace. You do great work.

Hope you had a wonderful birthday and I love Sully...he is adorable and I think it's fantastic you rescued him...I'm all about rescuing! I think Carl would have been a perfect name for him too...I love the movie UP...such a wonderful movie with great lines!

OMG! I LOVE Sully! I love that it is your Birthday on Jon Bon Jovi's Birthday, I love that you celebrate for two days in a row, I love that you have that story to tell about your childhood. I LOVE it all!

Ah! I am so behind on my blog reading! I totally missed your birthday!!! Happy belated day, my sweet friend!! Realizing that you are the just a month older than me is weird though. You seem much more mature. :)

Happy {Belated} Birthday! I had to comment on this post, 1. because your puppy is to DIE for cute. LOVE HIM. Love the disney themed names.

and 2. Carl is a perfect name for a dog. Growing up I had a Rottweiler (named Boris...also a funny name) - and I had a children's book starring a Rottie named Carl. It was called Good Dog, Carl (he was the family babysitter) - anyway, Good thing you went with Sully. Carl is a good dog name. For Rottweilers. :)
